The .40 S&W (10.2×22mm) is a rimless pistol cartridge developed jointly by American firearms manufacturers Smith & Wesson and Winchester in 1990. [3] The .40 S&W was developed as a law enforcement cartridge designed to duplicate performance of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) reduced-velocity 10mm Auto cartridge which could be retrofitted into medium-frame (9 mm size) semi ...
Mid- to late-war packing boxes were painted Olive Drab brown with white or yellow lettering that used the item's AIC code and a system of symbols to indicate the contents at a glance. The caliber, ammunition type and model (e.g., Caliber .30 Ball M1) were in the upper center field in bold lettering. The number of units (i.e., how many bullets ...
The .40 Super drives a 135 grain bullet to 1,800 feet per second while generating less chamber pressure than the 9x23mm Winchester. With a 200-grain bullet, the .40 Super delivers more foot-pounds of energy at 100 yards than the .45 ACP does at the muzzle. The original plan was to market the .40 Super as the .40 SIG, the big brother to the .357 ...

The .400 Corbon (10.2x22mm) is an automatic pistol cartridge developed by Cor-Bon in 1997. [2] It was created to mimic the ballistics of the 10 mm Auto cartridge in a .45 ACP form factor. It is essentially a .45 ACP case, necked down to .40 caliber with a 25-degree shoulder.
The .45 ACP, when loaded up to maximum standard pressures (none of these loads were listed as +P) will outperform .40 S&W in most weights. A quick look at the .45 GAP (which is loaded to .45 ACP +P pressures) shows that the 185 grain bullet is pushed to 1090 fps, for 488 ft. lbs. of muzzle energy; .45 ACP +P should be equal to or (since it can use a slightly slower, less dense powder) slightly ...
